Neither JSI nor any of its affiliates, or any director or officer of JSI or any of its affiliates, or any associate of any such director or officer, has any material relationship with Liberty. The terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, including the purchase price, were determined by arm’s length negotiations between JSI and Liberty.

The assertions embodied in such representations and warranties are qualified by information contained in confidential disclosure schedules that the parties exchanged in connection with signing the asset purchase agreement. In addition, these representations and warranties (i) may be intended not as statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate, (ii) may apply materiality standards different from what may be viewed as material to investors and securities holders, and (iii) were made only as of the date of the asset purchase agreement or as of such other date or dates as may be specified in the asset purchase agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of such representations and warranties may change after the date of the asset purchase agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.

(i)          the Purchaser will pay the Outstanding Transaction Expenses;
 
(ii)        the Purchaser will pay an amount equal to One Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($100,000) (the “Indemnity Escrow Amount”), and an amount equal to One Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($100,000) (the “Working Capital Escrow Amount”) to Merritt & Merritt (the “Escrow Agent”) with such funds to be held in an escrow account pursuant to the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”);
 
(iii)       the Purchaser will pay any Indebtedness of the Company (the “Indebtedness Amount”), with such payment being made to the holders of such Indebtedness pursuant to payoff letters in form acceptable to the Purchaser; and

1)
A payment in cash or wire transfer of immediately available funds in the amount Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($750,000), adjusted (plus or minus) by the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment, less the Indemnity Escrow Amount and the Working Capital Escrow Amount;
 


2)
Common Stock of iSun, Inc., a Delaware corporation,  valued at Two Hundred Fifty thousand and no/100 Dollars ($250,000), based on the 10-day volume weighted average Nasdaq closing price immediately prior to the Closing Date; and
 

3)
Three Hundred Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($300,000) in equal annual “earn out” installments over a two-year period following Closing, as set out in Section 1.8 hereof;
 
(b)          the Purchaser will assume the Assumed Liabilities.
 
1.6        The Closing.  The closing of the purchase and sale of the Assets and the transactions relating thereto (the “Closing”), will take place by simultaneous exchange of electronic or facsimile transmission of original signature pages on all documents and instruments required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Closing, each of which will be deemed an original for all purposes.  The date of the Closing is referred to as the “Closing Date.”  The effective time of the Closing is 11:59 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on the Closing Date (the “Effective Time”).
 
1.7       Purchase Price Adjustment.  The Purchase Price will be subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 1.7 (the “Working Capital Adjustment”).
 
(a)          Working Capital. “Working Capital” shall be determined on the following basis (the “Working Capital Methodology”):
 
 
Accounts Receivable
Plus: Inventory
Plus: Costs in Excess of Billings
Plus: Prepaid Assets
 
Minus:
 
Accounts Payable
Plus: Billings in Excess of Costs
 

(b)        Estimated Working Capital Adjustment.  At least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, the Company will deliver to the Purchaser an estimated statement of the Working Capital as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date, which will be acceptable to the Purchaser in the Purchaser’s reasonable discretion (the “Estimated Working Capital”).  If the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Working Capital Target, then, on the Closing Date, the Purchase Price will be increased on a dollar for dollar basis by an amount equal to the Estimated Working Capital less the Working Capital Target, and if the Working Capital Target is greater than the Estimated Working Capital, then, on the Closing Date, the Purchase Price will be decreased on a dollar for dollar basis by an amount equal to the Working Capital Target less the Estimated Working Capital (such adjustment, the “Estimated Working Capital Adjustment”).
 

(c)          Closing Working Capital Adjustment.
 
(i)        Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the Purchaser will prepare and deliver to the Company, a reasonably detailed statement (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”) of the Working Capital as of the close of business on the day prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Working Capital”).  Following the Closing Date, the Purchaser agrees that it will cooperate with the Company and its advisors in making available to the Company and its advisors such books, records, financial information, work papers, and supporting data, as reasonably requested, in connection with the Company’s review of the Closing Working Capital.
 
(ii)       The Company may deliver a written notice to the Purchaser within forty-five (45) days of the Company’s receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement stating whether the Company has any objections to the Closing Working Capital, describing in reasonable detail any objections thereto.  Failure to give a timely objection notice (or written notification from the Company that it has no objection to the Closing Working Capital Statement) will constitute acceptance and approval of the Closing Working Capital set forth therein, and such Closing Working Capital will be final and binding upon the parties.
 
(iii)       If the Company notifies the Purchaser of any objection to the Closing Working Capital Statement within the time period set forth in Section 1.7(c)(ii), the Purchaser and the Company will attempt in good faith to reach an agreement as to the matter in dispute.  If such parties have failed to resolve any such disputed item within thirty (30) days after receipt of timely notice of such objection, then any such disputed item will be submitted to and determined by an independent accounting firm selected by the Purchaser and the Company (the “Independent Accounting Firm”); provided, however, the parties may mutually agree on an extended period to resolve any such dispute before submitting it to the Independent Accounting Firm.  The Independent Accounting Firm will be given reasonable access to all of the records of the Company and the Purchaser to resolve any disputed item regarding the Closing Working Capital Statement, and will be instructed to submit its determination in writing with respect to any disputed matters to the Purchaser and the Company within twenty (20) days.  The Independent Accounting Firm will address only those items properly disputed in accordance with Section 1.7(c)(ii) and the Independent Accounting Firm may not assign a value greater than the greatest value or lower than the lowest value for any such item claimed by the Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand.  The Company and the Purchaser will be entitled to present any materials they deem appropriate to the Independent Accounting Firm, and to request a meeting, with all parties present (to the extent such parties desire to be present in such meeting), to discuss their position.  The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm incurred in resolving the disputed matter will be equitably apportioned by such accountants based on the extent to which the Purchaser, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, is determined by the Independent Accounting Firm to be the prevailing party in the resolution of each such disputed matter so that the non-prevailing party pays a greater share of such fees and expenses. The Closing Working Capital Statement properly disputed under this Section 1.7(c)(iii) will, after resolution of such dispute pursuant to this Section 1.7(c)(iii), be final, binding and conclusive on all parties.
 

(iv)       If the Closing Working Capital as finally determined is greater than the Estimated Working Capital, the Purchaser will pay such excess on a dollar for dollar basis to the Company in immediately available funds, and if the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Closing Working Capital, such excess amount will be released to the Purchaser from the Working Capital Escrow Amount, with the balance of the Working Capital Escrow Amount, to be paid by the Escrow Agent to the Company; provided, however, that in the event the Working Capital Escrow Amount is less than such excess amount, Sellers, jointly and severally, will pay such deficient amount on a dollar for dollar basis to the Purchaser in immediately available funds (such final adjustment, the “Closing Working Capital Adjustment”).  All payments pursuant to this Section 1.7(c) (iv) will be made from the Working Capital Escrow Amount within five (5) days after the determination of Closing Working Capital becomes final and binding.
 
1.8          Earnout Payment.
 
(a)          Calculation of Earn-Out Payment.
 
(i)         Provided that each and every employee listed on Exhibit B or their replacements remain employed by the Purchaser on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchaser will pay to the Company a payment of One Hundred Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($150,000) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and:
 
(ii)        Provided that each and every employee listed on Exhibit B or their replacements remain employed by the Purchaser on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchaser will pay to the Company a payment of One Hundred Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($150,000) by wire transfer of immediately available funds.
 
The payments described in Sections 1.8(a)(i) and 1.8(a)(ii) above shall be collectively be referred to herein as the “Earnout Payment.”
 
(iii)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Earnout Payment shall also be earned and payable on the occurrence prior to the second anniversary of this Agreement of any of the following events: (i) Equityholder is terminated as an employee of Purchaser without Cause, as defined in the Employment Agreement; (ii) Equityholder terminates his employment with Purchaser for Good Reason as defined in the Employment Agreement; (iii) the Purchaser ceases to operate the Business from its present Salem, New Hampshire location or another New Hampshire location located more than sixty (60) miles from Salem, New Hampshire; or (iv) the Purchaser ceases the operation of the Business.

(d)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the right of any party hereto to indemnification, payment of Damages or other remedies will not be affected in any way by any investigation conducted or knowledge (whether actual, constructive or imputed) acquired at any time by such party with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with or performance of, any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation or by the waiver of any condition.
 
(e)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining the existence of any breach of a representation or warranty made by a Seller or for purposes of determining Damages, each representation or warranty made by a Seller will be deemed made without any qualifications or limitations as to materiality and, without limiting the foregoing, the word “material” and words of similar import will be deemed deleted from any such representation or warranty.
 

(f)          For purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of Damages, the amount of such Damages will be reduced by any third-party insurance benefits which the indemnitee actually received in the year of the loss in respect of or as a result of such Damages (after taking into account any deductibles, cost of recovery and the present value of any associated increase in premiums).
 
(g)          Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no limitations on liability set forth in this Article V will apply with respect to claims based on fraud or intentional misrepresentation.
 
(h)       Upon the Purchaser providing 30 days’ prior notice to Sellers, during which time Sellers will have the opportunity to communicate an objection and/or explain the circumstances pursuant to which the Purchaser believes that it has indemnifiable Damages, the Purchaser will have the right to offset any indemnifiable Damages against the (i) Indemnity Escrow Amount (provided no notice period applies to filing a claim against the Indemnity Escrow Amount), (ii) any Earn-Out Payment and (iii) any other payment due to Sellers, in each case on a dollar-for-dollar basis.  In addition, the Purchaser will first bring claims under the Indemnity Escrow Amount with respect to a breach of the representations and warranties other than with respect to Fundamental Reps.
 
5.3         Indemnification by the Purchaser.  The Purchaser will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Sellers from, against and with respect to any Damages, of any kind or character, arising out of or in any manner incident, relating or attributable to (a) any inaccuracy in any representation or warranty of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, (b) any failure by the Purchaser to perform or observe, or to have performed or observed, in full any covenant, agreement, or condition to be performed or observed by it under this Agreement, and (c) any Assumed Liability, in each case, other than to the extent the claim otherwise relates to a Seller’s breach of a representation, warranty, or covenant.  Any claim for indemnification pursuant to subsection (a) above will be made on or prior to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding the above, any claim for indemnification under subsection (a) above made in accordance with this Article V prior to the expiration of the applicable indemnification period will survive until such matter is resolved.  All covenants and agreements which by their terms contemplate performance after the Closing Date will survive Closing indefinitely, unless specified otherwise by their terms.
 

5.4         Notice and Right to Defend.  Promptly after becoming aware of a third party claim as to which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Article V, the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) will notify the other party (the “Indemnitor”) of such claim.  The Indemnitee’s failure or delay in providing the notice will not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations under this Article V except to the extent that the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced as a result thereof. Unless the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee that the Indemnitor elects to assume the defense or the settlement of such claim (such notice to be given as promptly as reasonably possible in view of the necessity to arrange such defense and in no event later than ten (10) days following the notice to the Indemnitor), the Indemnitee will have the exclusive right to defend, settle, or pay such claim.  The Indemnitee will not be liable to the Indemnitor for any legal or other expense incurred by the Indemnitor in connection with any such defense or settlement undertaken by the Indemnitor.  If the Indemnitor assumes the defense, the Indemnitor will not agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a third-party claim without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld).  If the Indemnitor has assumed the defense or settlement of such claim, the Indemnitee will have the right to employ its own counsel, at its own expense.  If, in good faith, the Indemnitee concludes that there are specific defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnitor, that such claim may have an adverse effect upon the Indemnitee with respect to matters beyond the scope of the indemnities under this Article V, the Indemnitor has failed or is failing to diligently prosecute or defend such claim, the claim relates to Taxes, criminal or a regulatory action or the claim seeks damages other than monetary damages, the Indemnitee will have the right to direct the defense of any such claim at the expense of the Indemnitor (but subject to the limitations in this Article V).  The defending party in any event will (a) settle or defend such claim with reasonable diligence, (b) cooperate with the other parties in the investigation and analysis of such claim or proceeding, (c) afford the other parties reasonable access to such relevant information as it may have in its possession, and (d) keep the other parties reasonably informed regarding such claim and any related proceedings.

6.2         Confidentiality.  Each Seller will treat and hold as such all of the Confidential Information, refrain from using any of the Confidential Information except in connection with this Agreement, and deliver promptly to the Purchaser or destroy, at the request and option of the Purchaser, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information that are in such party’s possession.  In the event that a Seller is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, such Seller will notify the Purchaser promptly of the request or requirement so that the Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.2.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party to this Agreement (and each employee, representative, and other agent of such party) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby for Tax reporting, legal advice and other similar purposes.
 

6.3          Non-Competition by Sellers.
 
(a)         Noncompetition.  For a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date, no Seller will, anywhere in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont or Massachusetts, directly or indirectly (i) engage in any business or activity that competes with the Business, or (ii) invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, advise, render services to or guarantee the obligations of any Person engaged in or planning to become engaged in the Business, provided, however, that Sellers may collectively purchase or otherwise acquire up to (but not more than) an aggregate of three percent (3%) of any class of the securities of any Person (but may not otherwise participate in the activities of such Person) if such securities are listed on any national or regional securities exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.
 
(b)          Nonsolicitation and Nonhire.  For a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date, no Seller will, directly or indirectly:
 
(i)          solicit the business of any Person who is a customer of the Purchaser or its Affiliates with respect to the Business;
 
(ii)         cause, induce or attempt to cause or induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee, employee, consultant or other business relation of the Purchaser or its Affiliates to cease doing business with such parties, to deal with any competitor of the Purchaser or its Affiliates, or in any way interfere with its relationship with such parties in each case with respect to the Business;
 
(iii)      cause, induce or attempt to cause or induce with respect to the Business any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee, employee, consultant or other business relation of the Company on the Closing Date or within the year preceding the Closing Date to cease doing business with the Purchaser or its Affiliates, to deal with any competitor of the Purchaser or its Affiliates, or in any way interfere with its relationship with such parties with respect to the Purchaser, its Affiliates or the Business; or
 
(iv)      hire, retain or attempt to hire or retain any employee or independent contractor of the Purchaser or its Affiliates (current, or former if such Person was an employee or independent contractor in the twelve-month period prior to the relevant time period or was an employee or independent contractor of the Company during the twelve-month period prior to the Closing) or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Purchaser and its Affiliates, and any of its employees or independent contractors; provided the foregoing shall not  prohibit  the Sellers from making a general solicitation not directed at employees of the Purchaser or its Affiliates.
 

(c)         Modification of Covenant.  If a final judgment of a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any term or provision contained in Section 6.3 is invalid or unenforceable, then the parties agree that the court or tribunal will have the power to reduce the scope, duration or geographic area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision.  This Section 6.3 will be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.  Sellers acknowledge this Section 6.3 is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve the Purchaser’s and its Affiliates legitimate business interests.  Sellers also acknowledge that the Business and the business engaged in by the Purchaser and its Affiliates has a worldwide scope.
 
(d)        Enforcement of Covenant.  The parties agree that the remedy of damages at law for the breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.3 is an inadequate remedy and that no Seller will challenge the enforceability or reasonableness of the covenants set forth in this Section 6.3.  In recognition of the irreparable harm that a violation by a Seller of any of the covenants, agreements or obligations arising under this Section 6.3 would cause the Purchaser or its Affiliates, Sellers agree that in addition to any other remedies or relief afforded by law, an injunction against an actual or threatened violation or violations may be issued against a Seller without posting a bond or other security.  In the event of an action to enforce the covenants in this Section 6.3, the Purchaser will be entitled to be reimbursed for actual attorney’s fees incurred by such party with respect to such action.  Sellers acknowledge and expressly consent to the governing law and exclusive jurisdiction provisions set forth in Section 8.8 with respect to this Section 6.3.  In the event a Seller violates any provisions of this Section 6.3 hereof, then, in such event the period of the violation will be added to the restricted period set forth in such section with regard to such Seller.
 
6.4         Transfer Taxes.  The Company and the Purchaser will each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of all stamp, transfer, documentary, sales, use, value added, registration, property, excise and other such taxes and fees relating thereto (including any penalties, interest and additions to such taxes) incurred in connection with this Agreement, all other agreements or instruments contemplated herein and the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Company will make all filings, returns, reports and forms as may be required to comply with the provisions of all applicable tax laws.
 
6.5          Payment of Excluded Liabilities.  The Company will pay, or make adequate provision for the payment, in full (or such reduced amount as is mutually agreed upon by the vendor and the Company) all of the Excluded Liabilities of the Company.  If any such Excluded Liabilities are not so paid or provided for, or if the Purchaser reasonably determines that failure to make any payments will impair the Purchaser’s use or enjoyment of the Assets or conduct of the Business previously conducted by the Company with the Assets, the Purchaser may, at any time after the Closing Date, elect to make all such payments directly (but will have no obligation to do so) and will be promptly reimbursed by Sellers, jointly and severally, for the amount paid by the Purchaser (or at the Purchaser’s election, the Purchaser may offset such amount against the Indemnity Escrow Amount or any payment due to Sellers).
 
6.6        Post-Closing Reconciliation of Accounts.  From and after Closing, each Seller or a representative thereof agrees that if such party receives or collects any payments or funds in respect of any Assets or any other funds or payments owing or belonging to the Purchaser under this Agreement or relating to the operations of the Business after the Closing, then such party will within three days of receipt of such items notify, and forward such misdirected payments or funds to, the Purchaser.
 

6.7        Non-Assignable Contracts and Permits.  Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as an attempt to assign to the Purchaser any Contract or Permit, which is by Law or its terms non-assignable or the assignment of which would constitute a violation of applicable Law, or any Contract.  Pending the assignment of any Purchased Contracts, the Company will hold the Purchased Contracts for the benefit and at the risk of the Purchaser and will cooperate with the Purchaser in any lawful and reasonable arrangements designed to provide the benefits of ownership thereof to the Purchaser.

The Company wishes to employ Employee in the position of set forth on Exhibit A hereto, and the  Employee wishes to serve in such capacity; and

1.          Term.  Unless sooner terminated in accordance with Section 4 hereof, the term of this Agreement (the “Initial Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and continue until the end date of the Initial Term date as specified on Exhibit A hereto.   This Agreement may be renewed upon mutual consent of the parties in writing for additional one (1) year periods (or such other term as mutually agreed by the parties in writing) (each a “Renewal Term”, and together with the Initial Term, the “Employment Period”).

2.
Position and Duties.
 
a.          Employee will serve as an employee of the Company in the position and having the title set forth on Exhibit A hereto and will have duties and obligations detailed on Exhibit A. In such capacity, Employee will have the normal duties, responsibilities, and authority of such position, and will report to and be subject to the authority of their reporting persons identified on Exhibit A hereto.
 
b.          During the Employment Period, the Employee is generally expected to work an average number of weekly hours as provided for on Exhibit A, and except as detailed on Exhibit A, the Employee will devote substantially all of Employee’s business time and attention to the performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement and will not engage in any other business, profession, or occupation for compensation or otherwise which would conflict or interfere with the performance of such services or Employee’s exercise of judgment in the Company’s best interests, either directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company in each instance, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee is permitted to: (i) act or serve as a director, trustee, committee member or volunteer of any type of business, civic, or charitable organization, as long as such activities do not compete with the business of the Company, interfere with the performance of the Employee’s duties to the Company or interfere with Employee’s exercise of judgment in the Company’s best interests; and (ii) purchase or own less than three percent (3%) of the publicly traded securities of any corporation, provided that such ownership represents a passive investment and that Employee is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group that controls, such corporation.

c.          Employee represents and warrants to the Company that Employee’s acceptance of employment with the Company and the performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement will not conflict with or result in a violation of any contract, agreement, or understanding to which Employee is a party or is otherwise bound, including without limitation any non-solicitation, non- competition or other similar covenant or agreement with a prior employer.  Employee represents and warrants that in connection with Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee will not use any third party confidential or proprietary information Employee may have obtained in connection with employment with any prior employer or otherwise.

b.          Bonus. In the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee or the Board, Employee may be eligible to receive a cash bonus (the “Bonus”), based on the achievement of Company performance goals established by the Board or the Compensation Committee, within the measurement period established by the Board or the Compensation Committee (the “Bonus Period”). The Bonus, if any, will be paid on the date that bonuses are paid to similarly situated Employees, or if no such date has been established, within sixty (60) days after the end of the applicable Bonus Period.
 
c.          Equity Awards. Employee shall be eligible to participate in the equity incentive plan outlined on Exhibit B.  Any vesting of such equity incentives will be subject to acceleration if the Employee is terminated without Cause (as defined below) or resigns for Good Reason (as defined below).
 
d.          Benefits. During the Employment Period, Employee will be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans, practices, and programs maintained by the Company, as in effect from time to time (collectively, “Employee Benefit Plans”), on a basis which is no less favorable than is provided to other similarly situated Employees of the Company to the extent consistent with applicable law and the eligibility of Employee under the terms of the applicable Employee Benefit Plans.  The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate any Employee Benefit Plan at any time in its sole discretion, subject to the terms of such Employee Benefit Plan and applicable law.

f.          Vacation; Paid Time Off.

a.          For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” will mean:
 
i.          Employee’s engagement in dishonesty, fraud, or misconduct materially injurious to the Company or demonstrably injurious to the Company’s reputation, including without limitation: submission of false claims for material expense reimbursement; violations of the Company’s policies against harassment of any kind or nature under federal, state or local laws or regulations; or repeated and flagrant breach of health or safety regulations as provided in the Company Handbook or other policy;
 
ii.          Employee’s conviction of (or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to) any felony involving dishonesty or moral turpitude;

Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by Employee in good faith and in the best interests of the Company and shall not be a basis for a termination for Cause. For purposes of the foregoing definition, no act, or failure to act, on the part of Employee shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by Employee in bad faith and without reasonable belief that Employee’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company.

b.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” will mean:
 
i.          a material reduction in Employee’s Base Salary;
 
ii.          the Company’s failure to pay a Bonus for which Employee has qualified based on the achievement of performance goals communicated to the Employee;

vii.          a material adverse change in the reporting structure applicable to Employee; or
 
viii.          the Company’s failure to obtain an agreement from any successor to the Company to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no succession had taken place, except where such assumption occurs by operation of law.
 
To terminate Employee’s employment for Good Reason, Employee must provide written notice to the Company of the existence of the circumstances providing grounds for termination for Good Reason, other than the circumstance described in subparagraph 4b viii above, within sixty (60) days of the existence of such grounds and the Company must have at least ten (10) business days from the date on which such notice is provided to cure such circumstances. If Employee does not provide notice to the Company of intent to terminate Employee’s employment for Good Reason within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the applicable grounds, Employee will be deemed to have waived Employee’s right to terminate for Good Reason with respect to such grounds.
 
c.          The Employment Period and Employee’s employment may be terminated by the Company for Cause, by Employee without Good Reason, or as a result of either Party electing to not renew this Agreement at the expiration of the then current term of the Employment Period, and Employee will be entitled to receive:

In the event of such termination, Employee will be entitled to receive the Accrued Amounts and, subject to Employee’s compliance with Exhibit C to this Agreement and Employee’s execution, within twenty-one (21) days following receipt, of a release of claims in favor of the Company, its affiliates, subsidiaries, shareholders, officers and directors and its and their successors and assigns in a reasonable and customary form that is provided by the Company (which release is not revoked by Employee if such release includes a revocation period), Employee will be entitled to receive the following:
 
i.          A lump sum payment equal to Employee’s Base Salary subject to applicable withholding, for a twelve (12) month period. If Employee terminates for Good Reason due to a material reduction in Employee’s Base Salary, the payment will be equal to Employee’s Base Salary prior to such reduction.);

iii.          All vested rights of Employee under the Company’s equity incentive plan

Any question as to the existence of Employee’s Disability as to which Employee and the Company cannot agree will be determined in writing by a qualified independent physician mutually acceptable to Employee and the Company. The determination of Disability made in writing to the Company and Employee will be final and conclusive for all purposes of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, payments provided under this Agreement may only be made upon an event and in a manner that complies with Section 409A or an applicable exemption. Any nonqualified deferred compensation payments under this Agreement that may be excluded from Section 409A either as separation pay due to an involuntary separation from service or as a short-term deferral will be excluded from Section 409A to the maximum extent possible.

Page 6 of 10

b.          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any payment or benefit provided to Employee in connection with Employee’s termination of employment is determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and Employee is determined to be a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(b)(i), then such payment or benefit will not be paid until the first payroll date to occur following the six-month anniversary of the date of Employee’s termination or, if earlier, on Employee’s death (the “Specified Employee Payment Date”). The aggregate of any payments that would otherwise have been paid before the Specified Employee Payment Date will be paid to Employee in a lump sum on the Specified Employee Payment Date and thereafter, any remaining payments will be paid without delay in accordance with Employee’s original schedule.
 
c.          To the extent required by Section 409A, each reimbursement or in-kind benefit provided under this Agreement will be provided in accordance with the following:

ii.          any reimbursement of an eligible expense will be paid to Employee on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred; and
 
iii.          any right to reimbursements or in-kind benefits under this Agreement will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
 
7.          Governing Law; Arbitration. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of New Hampshire, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law. Other than as provided in the Company’s Confidential  Information, Inventions, Non-Solicit and Non-Compete Agreement to which Employee is subject, in the event the parties are unable to resolve any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement through negotiation within thirty (30) calendar days after written notification by one Party to the other as to the existence and nature of such dispute (or such longer period as the parties may agree), the parties agree to submit the dispute to binding arbitration in Burlington, Vermont.  The arbitration will be by a single arbitrator experienced in employment matters acceptable to both parties. The arbitration will be governed by the rules of the American Arbitration Association Employment Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures and Due Process Protocol. Judgment upon the award will be in writing in form suitable for entry by any court having jurisdiction.

Exhibit 10.2

IRREVOCABLE PROXY

In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated October 31, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among John Stark Electric, Inc., a New Hampshire corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of iSun, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Liberty Electric, Inc., a New Hampshire corporation, and John P. Comeau, the undersigned Stockholder (the “Stockholder) agrees as follows:

1. Grant of Irrevocable Proxy.
 
(a) The Stockholder, with respect to all of the shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) owned, now or in the future, by the Stockholder, hereby grants to Jeffrey Peck (the “Holder”) an irrevocable proxy under Section 212 of the Delaware General Corporation Law to vote the Shares in any manner that the Holder may determine in his sole and absolute discretion to be in the best interest of the Company, at any meeting of stockholders of the Company or action by written consent with respect to any matter or transactions contemplated thereby. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing irrevocable proxy is hereby granted to the Holder by the Stockholder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and is coupled with an interest.
 
(b) Because of this interest in the Shares, the Holder shall have no duty, liability and obligation whatsoever (except for those duties, liabilities and obligations imposed on the Holder by law) to the Stockholder arising out of the exercise by the Holder of the foregoing irrevocable proxy. The Stockholder expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Stockholder will not impede the exercise of the Holder's rights under the irrevocable proxy and (ii) the Stockholder waives and relinquishes any claim, right or action the Stockholder might have, as a stockholder of the Company or otherwise, against the Holder or any of his affiliates in connection with any exercise of the irrevocable proxy granted hereunder.
 
(c) The Stockholder has the right to notice of or to any and all special and general meetings of stockholders during the term of this Irrevocable Proxy and further severally agrees that if any notice is given by the Company to the Stockholder, such notice will be deemed to have been validly given to the Stockholder for all purposes.
 
2. Legend. During the term of this Irrevocable Proxy, the Stockholder agrees to permit the following legend on certificates evidencing the Shares reflecting the grant of the irrevocable proxy contained in the foregoing Section 1:

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AN IRREVOCABLE PROXY WHICH PLACES CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON THE VOTING OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY.  ANY PERSON ACCEPTING ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SHARES SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH AGREEMENT.  A COPY OF SUCH IRREVOCABLE PROXY WILL BE FURNISHED TO THE RECORD HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE WITHOUT CHARGE UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS.


3. Term. This Irrevocable Proxy shall remain in effect for a transfer or sale of any Shares by the Stockholder: (i) by gift or other transfer to a member of Stockholder’s immediate family or to a trust, corporation, partnership or limited liability company established for estate planning purposes, the beneficiaries, stockholders, partners or members of which are members of such Stockholder’s immediate family or a charitable organization; or (ii) by virtue of the Laws of descent and distribution upon the death of Stockholder, as applicable. With regard to any other transfer or sale of Shares, immediately upon such transfer or sale of any Shares by the Stockholder, this Irrevocable Proxy will automatically terminate as to the Shares that are transferred or sold, the Company will remove the Legend described in Section 2 immediately upon such transfer or sale and such transferred or sold Shares will no longer be subject to the proxy or restrictions described in this Irrevocable Proxy.

3. Representations and Warranties. The Stockholder represents and warrants to the Holder as follows:
 
(a) The Stockholder has all necessary rights, power and authority to execute, deliver and perform his obligations under this Irrevocable Proxy. This Irrevocable Proxy has been duly executed and delivered by the Stockholder and constitutes his legal and valid obligation enforceable against the Stockholder in accordance with its terms.
 
(b) The Stockholder is the record owner of the Shares and the Stockholder has plenary voting and dispositive power with respect to such Shares; the Stockholder owns no other shares of the capital stock of the Company; there are no proxies, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which such Stockholder is a party or bound by and which expressly require that any of the Shares be voted in any specific manner other than this Irrevocable Proxy; and such Stockholder has not entered into any agreement or arrangement inconsistent with this Irrevocable Proxy.
 
4. Equitable Remedies. The Stockholder acknowledges that irreparable damage would result if this Irrevocable Proxy is not specifically enforced and that, therefore, the rights and obligations of the Holder may be enforced by a decree of specific performance issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith. Such remedies shall, however, not be exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which the Holder may otherwise have available.

Dated October 31, 2021.
